How do I add separate pages to a blog.

I'm just starting a blog, http://readwriteausten.com, and I'd like to add separate pages for 'about me,' a contact form, and so on. I'd like the pages to be visible as a link visitors could click on at the top of my home page. I've created some separate pages, but they don't seem to show up as a link anywhere. Please reply to me also by email if possible: [email redacted]. Many thanks. I can return the favor with some proofreading/editing help.
